Ohhhhhh Henry - your first 3 weeks!


I'll start this off by saying that I cannot handle how quickly the last 3 weeks have flown by.  Heck, on Thursday Henry will be 4 weeks and we are already staring down his 1 month birthday.  Henry, you have no idea how much joy you've brought into our hearts.  Honestly, you've fulfilled my dreams as a mother.  I'm so heart-happy and content with you in our lives.


Daddy is quite smitten with you as well.  I think he is contemplating a move to Texas in the near future because they don't take football seriously enough up here.  ;)


And your sisters?

They can't keep their hands off of you!

We have been pretty brave with you your first few weeks.  With 2 big sisters, it's quite impossible to stay home, so you get to tag along to all things fun.  At 5 days old, you joined us at our local aquarium.

 We also headed out to the beach when you were only 6 days old!  You slept the whole time.

  And our trips to the beach almost always conclude with ice cream.

 You arrived just in time for pre-season football.  ;)

This photo cracks me up because you look a little sea animal with no fingers! 

You wouldn't be an official member of the family unless you attended dinner at Grandpa and Mimi's.





You didn't like your first bath, but now that your umbilical cord is gone and you can be fully-immersed, you are fond of the warm water.

I can't wait to take your 1 month photo this weekend, because oh boy, have you filled out!



We decided on an impromptu 2 night trip to the Rhode Island beaches and Mystic in your 2nd week.  We had so much fun and you made our mini vacation so easy!

We headed to Mystic Pizza for dinner!  Thankfully, you don't seem to be irritated by dairy.

And more icecream...

We headed off to the Mystic Seaport the next morning.

My favorite part of the last few weeks?  Snuggling you on the couch after your sisters have gone to bed.

Because let's be honest, they are a bit crazy!  ;)


Happy 3 weeks, little man.

And without further ado, you're newborn photos!















I have my dear friend Ute from www.utechristinphotography.com for the following images.  No way were the girls going to listen to me, so we headed off to her studio where she got these beauties, plus helped me pose him for more beanbag shots!







I praise God daily, if not hourly, for you Henry man.  <3
